The absence of fuel threatens to drown doctors and patients in the largest medical center in Gaza in the dark, which, according to doctors, can lead to completely paralysis of the al -shifa hospital, since Israel continues its military campaign.
While the prime minister of Israeli Benjamin Netanyahu discussed the fate of Israeli hostages in Gaza with US President Donald Trump in Washington, doctors in the Al -Shifa hospital warned about the inevitable danger to patients.
The General Director of the Ministry of Health in Gaza, Munir al -Barash, told Reuters that the threats are “a shell, nor a rocket, and a siege that prevents him from entering fuel in order to deprive these people from the right to treatment and transfer the hospital to a silent cemetery.”
He added: “In the very heart of the city of Gaza, where death is marginalized, the hospital of the al -shifa, the largest hospital in the strip, indicates a watch of life and death.
Israeli air strikes and the continuous bombardment of hospitals in the gas sector, a small tape of the Earth, were under a long siege, led by Israel, even before the start of the war between it and the movement of Hamas, October 7, 2023.
Palestinians and medical workers accuse the Israeli army of attacking hospitals, the accusations that he denies.
Israel accuses Hamas of working in medical institutions and the management of the centers of leadership centers that denies the movement.
But those who pay the price are patients who need medical care, food and water.
The World Health Organization stated that more than 600 attacks on medical institutions have occurred since the start of the conflict, without any authority. She said that the healthcare sector in gas “suffers from collapse”, with the lack of fuel and medical supplies and the arrival of victims in large quantities.
According to the United Nations Organization, half of 36 state hospitals in Gaza are partially operating.
The director of the Hospital Al -Shifa Mohamed Abu Salma warned of a humanitarian catastrophe from the fuel crisis, which poses a direct threat to work in the hospital, desalination stations and water distribution network.
He accused Israel of interrupting hospitals in gases.
The government division of business cordination in the regions, the Israeli army, which coordinates assistance, has not yet responded to the request to comment on the absence of fuel in medical institutions in gas and risks for patients.
